Two monitors at the same time, friend. In seriousness, I'd be careful because as others have pointed out, some crypto systems would be vulnerable.

- dave_au 17y agoMore than some, I think. Most strong crypto short of one-time pads makes use of NP (or at least problems solvable by NP problems, factoring is probably a little easier than NP). NP is nice for crypto since it has P time checkable solutions - so just make the "password" an encoding of the solution and you're golden. It's easy to check that a password is correct, and it takes EXP time to brute force. Hopefully the crypto implementation blocks IPs after some number of login attempts that is less than EXP :)
- sown 17y agoI'm reminded from the seminal hacker movie: "There's not a government on this earth that wouldn't kill us all for that thing."
